There is a short cut method for this question to solve.

Basically we have to find you is father-in-law of P. So Gender of you is male.

Options B, C, D having U's Gender unknown because you has come at last position of statement in a given options. So you gender is male or female is not given.

So only option A is remaining.

By elimination method, by eliminating B, C, D, only option A is remaining. So answer is A.

Ne need to solve all the options.
